When Somsi finished taking care of all the files he took the time to stop by Siti's house. He wanted to tell me what he was feeling right now.
Siti always listened to what she said. Siti also cares about him a lot. Somsi knocks on the door of Siti's house, and Siti opens the door and comes to him. "Eh,Sompan. Tumben stopped by here. Not usually."
"Yes to Sit. I'd like to meet you. I haven't played here in a long time." Somsi gave another reason for his arrival.
He was also confused whether he would tell her the problem or choose to keep it in his heart.
Siti watched Somsi, from earlier she saw Somsi as not excited.
He would not normally play at his house. He doubted what his best friend said. It is clear that his arrival is only because he wants to meet.
Is he having a problem?
Siti continued to pay attention to Somsi, until Somsi himself felt uncomfortable. Somsi was his little friend.
Yes, although Somsi has never admitted to being a friend, but he still considers Somsi as his best friend.
Maybe because of the good attitude he has. He did not care about Somsi's state whether rich or not.
Although he knows that Somsi is the son of a very poor family. Because for him to be sincere friends.
"Seriously, you don't papa Som. Just the same story as me. While I can still help, I'll help."
Siti offered her help. Hoping that Somsi would tell her what was the problem.
"Ahk Siti, I'm not papa. I can't seem to stop by here. You are evil if you forbid your friends to come to your house."
Somsi was just jokingly saying that. He tried to smile, he did not want to show the problem either from his face or his mouth.
"Hehehhehe, Somsi that's not what I mean. Sorry if you were offended by my words." Siti doesn't want her best friend to misunderstand her. He just wants to help.
As long as he could help he wouldn't reject it.
Siti is still very confused by the arrival of Somsi. It was clear that his best friend was hinting that he was in trouble.
But he tried to cover it up. Siti is looking for a way that she can overcome Somsi's silence. And how to get Somsi to tell the truth about what has happened to him without having to cover up again.
"Oh yeah Som. I already have an account, papa I got a job from his job. Every month I'll get some savings from the account my papa sent me." Siti tried to use a way to make Somsi believe a little.
Come Som. There is nothing to cover up anymore, I am always there to help you. Oh come.
"What a great sit. I-" Somsi's voice was cut off as he wanted to continue the word from what he said. He felt stupid for what he wanted to say.
"I'm what Som, your voice is disconnected. I want you to know Som, now my money has been collected. If you need money, you can borrow my money. If indeed you really need with money," said Siti.
Siti noticed Somsi's face which looked like she was thinking about something. From Somsi's disconnected words he already suspected Somsi of having a problem. Moreover, the face of his best friend looks sad.
Wow, what a coincidence. I really need money right now.
"Hey. I'm talking to you. How come you're even dumb." Siti resuscitates Somsi from her daydream. He was thinking. I don't know what she's thinking Siti doesn't know.
"Heheheheh sorry. Sit... Can I not borrow your money? I really need money right now. I don't know who I'm going to borrow that kind of money from" Somsi said. Somsi lowered his head in shame at him. They both finished school, but until now he still has no job. How can he have money if he himself has not worked.
"Why do you really need Som's money? do you have a problem? where's this money going after you borrow it?" ask Siti full of curiosity. Siti did not want to lend her money. It's just that he needs to know what's really Somsi's problem. Which made her pretty face look pitiful like this.
"Look Sit. papa I told that I could apply for a job in Malaysia. I don't know exactly what kind of job he is. But I heard from my brother who has taken care of my files, I will be done at PT." Somsi began to explain what he was going through at the moment.
"Oh you want to be a TKI?" ask Siti.
"What is TKI? ask Somsi back. He was confused by what Siti had just said.
"That's a lot of labor from Indonesia," explained Siti.
"Owh is that." Somsi only replied to Siti's short speech. He seemed confused by the job he was applying for. He was afraid that the job he was applying for was misleading or turned around with what he expected.
He works in Malaysia. All this time she had heard people working as household assistants were being treated very badly. He did not want to be deceived and put into a household assistant.
"Maybe that's Sit" Somsi said.
"Where did your father get that news Som?" ask Siti again. Siti was getting curious about her best friend. Same with Somsi. Siti fears that her best friend is being cheated and sold in Malaysia. He himself knew about what had happened in Malaysia all along.
"Friends from my dad Sit. Coincidentally my papa friend's daughter has come home and not continued work anymore. From what I heard the brother came home because his age was not enough to work anymore. They have an age limit in Sit's work, said the brother's age limit should not pass from 30 years," said Somsi.
Siti increasingly believes that the one listed by her best friend is indeed as TKI and not TKW. "Owh so well Som.... indeed you want to borrow how much?" ask Siti curiously.
"Sit said the brother to work there the money was ten million. I'm not forcing you to give me how much" Somsi explained.
"Som. I only have five million in my account. If you want I'll get my money all in the account" said Siti. He also wanted to give Siti more money, but since the money was still that much, what would she love. That he has, that's what he gives.
"If you get all your pocket money this month, what?" ask Somsi.
He did not want Siti because of the intention to help him, he so did not get pocket money this month. What else if his father asks where all the money is and why as much money can run out quickly.
"You don't have to worry. It's the end of the month. Of course papa I will send money on the first date," said Siti sincerely.
"Owh so yes Sit,"
I've never had that kind of money before.
Somsi lowered his head. All this time he never got that much pocket money from his parents.
"Wear toa Sit...!" said Somsi who was disturbed by Siti's voice.
"Haha...Sorry," said Siti.
"Heheheheh is not papa" said Somsi.
"So you're daydreaming anyway.so you want to borrow my money?" ask Siti. This time he wants his best friend to quickly say that his best friend really needs that help. He himself was very late to go to the market to buy house supplies. Their fruits are no more.
"Yes-yes I want to" said Somsi.
Siti smiled sincerely. "OK I'll get it just for you. I want to go to the market to buy bye."
Siti leaves Somsi. While Somsi is still confused about where else he is looking for money.
He himself did not have as much money as Siti. Although all this time he keeps money in a piggy bank but not as much as Siti's money.
.......
...****************...
Siti has arrived home. He didn't find his mother. Maybe her mother was in the field. Then he saw the supplies at home. Then he saw rice and eggs and there were still carrots with cabbage.
"OK I will cook the bakwan and sell it" Somsi said in silence. There's no one in the house. Her own grandfather has not yet returned to school.
After a few minutes had passed the bakwan that he had concocted Sudan cooked all. He just sold it. Not to forget he left a little for both his parents and also his beloved adek.
The.................
Friska's voice sounded very surprising.
"Ahk adek's. You surprise your sister" said Somsi, holding her chest. It feels in his hands that his heart is racing.
Without him realizing it Friska had come home and had surprised him. Fortunately, he held a strong hold on his head.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha .. sorry sis... Where are you going? and what's that over big brother's head?" ask Friska.
"It's bakwan. Yes, my sister wants to go on sale. Brother left it for you. Don't spend! leave it for mom and dad" said Somsi and left Friska inside the house.
In the middle of the road he has been around here and there has been no one to buy the sale.
Bakong.....
He raised his voice to be heard by anyone who heard him and came up to him to buy.
"Sister. bakwan," said the little boy.
" Yes deck... How much do you want?" ask Somsi.
"two brothers" said the little boy.
"Thank God" inner Somsi. She was happy because someone had offered her bakwan.
"This is my brother" said the boy, who offered him two thousand dollars.
Somsi smiled happily accepting the money. "Thank you deck."
Somsi went back around again and was startled by a male voice. He almost dropped that lord over his head.
The Ba.............
"You why the hell always bother me, you don't have a job," snapped Somsi who felt his heart was about to be dislodged.
"Hahahahhaha.you are funny times," said Bram laughing out loud.
Somsi did not serve him to talk, he refocused on the sale.
"Eh...do not stayin me dong," said Bram followed Somsi quickly.
There was no response from Somsi. Then he looked for a way to get Somsi to talk again.
Bakong.....
Bram's loud voice filled one of the villages. Somsi was troubled by Bram's loud voice. Suddenly many people came and approached them.
Somsi confused who should serve first because a lot. Bram also helped until finally Somsi bakwan live two more.
"Thank you for helping me" said Somsi then thrust the rest of his bakwan.
"Where? still don't want to talk to me?" tanya Bram smiled cunningly.
Somsi did not hear it and left Bram alone. If he could talk to her. He might not come home later. He still has a lot of work at home.
Seriate....
